The APOTHECALCis a pre-programmed computer with sequences that calculate body surface area, dose rates, administration rates for medication, volume, concentration and more. It is also a powerful units measurement converter with a 28 key conversions like CC to ounce, grain to GM, ML to MCGTT, F° to C°, LB to KG, MG to GM and more. in addition, the APOTHECALCis a normal five-function calculator. Other features include:

• Memory stores results, saving re-entry of data
• Backlit display allows reading in all light levels
• Detailed instruction manual plus Quick Reference Guide
• 30-day money back guarantee
• One-year warranty

112.5mm (4-3/8") x 74mm (2-7/8") x 7mm 3/8" Power source: two lithium button batteries.

Features:

• Programs: The APOTHECALC's preprogrammed sequences can compute drug calculations, dose, rate, volume, concentration without nomograms and charts.
• Units Conversions: Converts any of 28 common apothecary measures, including temperature, weights and fluid volumes, at the touch of a key. (See Conversion Operations for complete listing)
• Speed: Ouickly compute any of the commonly-used IV formulas without nomograms or charts.
• Fast Recheck: Step quickly through a formula to see the values used in arriving at the result.
• Fast Error Corrections: Erroneous values quickly replaced and new results computed without going through the entire problem again.
• Accuracy: Results shown to tenths of a unit, expandable to five decimal places with one key press.
• Informative Display: Prompts you for required data entry and shows which unit of measure the displayed result represents.
• Accuracy of Entries: A switchable tone announces the activation of keys. Eliminates inadvertent double-entry and no-entry errors.
• Use at Night or in Dim Light: Switchable backlighting makes the display easy to read without external light source.
• Size: Designed to fit comfortably in your hand or for carrying in a pocket or pouch.
• Power: Uses long-lasting, easy-to-get lithium batteries. Turns off automatically if you forget; increases battery life.

APOTHECALC's power preprogrammed sequences allow you to:

• Use DRIP1 to solve problems like this: An 83 Kg patient is to be given
• Dopamine at 13 mcg/kg/min using a solution at 800 mg in 500 ml of D5W. What is the infusion rate? What is the drip factor ?
• Use 28 hey unit conversions lihe these: CC to ounce, grain to GM, ML to MCGTT, F0 to C0, Lb to KG, MG to GM and more.
• Use VOL to solve problems like this: A loading dose of 140 mg gentamycin has just been mixed in 100 cc diluent when the order is changed to 120 mg. What volume of fluid should be discarded?
• Use BSA to calculate Body Surface Area for administration of chemotherapeutics and pediatric IVs.
